<div class="heading">So our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is trying to educate people to cure his disease of forgetfulness. He has forgotten simply. Just like a madman forgets who is his father, who is his mother, he talks nonsense, sometimes he calls ill names. Mad. So similarly, we in this material world, without any Kṛṣṇa consciousness we are all mad, forgetful. This disease has to be cured. The best medicine is this Kṛṣṇa consciousness.

The difference is, man and God—so God knows everything eternally and we forget. This is our nature.

Therefore sometimes we forget Kṛṣṇa. And therefore Kṛṣṇa comes to remind that "Why you are forgetting Me? We are eternally related. So forgetting Me, you are suffering here. Give up all this nonsense." ''Sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekam ''([[vanisource:BG 18.66 (1972)|BG 18.66]]). That is wanted. This is Kṛṣṇa consciousness.

So our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is trying to educate people to cure his disease of forgetfulness. He has forgotten simply. Just like a madman forgets who is his father, who is his mother; he talks nonsense, sometimes he calls ill names. Mad. Similarly, we in this material world, without any Kṛṣṇa consciousness we are all mad, forgetful. This disease has to be cured. The best medicine is this Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Nature's way, we have got this human form of life, but because on account of lack of proper education, we remain in forgetful condition from the animal life. But there is chance. That is said in the ''Caitanya-caritāmṛta''. ''Anādi bahir-mukha jīva kṛṣṇa bhuli gela ''([[vanisource:CC Madhya 20.117|CC Madhya 20.117]]), ''ataeva kṛṣṇa veda-purāṇa karilā ''([[vanisource:CC Madhya 20.122|CC Madhya 20.122]]). These rascals, from time immemorial they have forgotten Kṛṣṇa. And just to remind him, these ''Vedas'', the ''Purāṇas'', they are there.

But there is no education of these ''Vedas ''and ''Purāṇas''. They are interested in Freud philosophy, Darwin's theory, all this nonsense. The ''Vedas'', ''Purāṇas'', are there; they are neglectful. But the rascal philosophy, they are interested. Their life is spoiled. This is spoiling civilization. One has got the opportunity of understanding himself. He has forgotten himself, and there is bona fide literature how to understand himself. ''Athāto brahma jijñāsā''. The ''Vedānta ''is there: "Now you inquire what you are." The inquiry must be there. Unless you inquire, automatically it will not be, because God has given you independence. Very little independence, but we are misusing. We are misusing. Therefore unless by using properly our little independence we accept Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Lord, and surrender unto Him, there is no liberation. Kṛṣṇa can force you, but He does not do that. Because you have misused your independence—you have forgotten Kṛṣṇa—again you have to use properly your independence and accept Kṛṣṇa. That is wanted. That is wanted. This is the process.
